The most awaited Marathi film of the year, 'Baghtos Kay Mujra Kar' is finally out in theatres. The film is most anticipated because of the subject of Maharashtra's lost glory, its Maratha forts. Shivaji Maharaj established Hindavi Swarajya by capturing these forts from dectators and building new ones for the people (Marathi रयत). But today, do we care about these heritage forts which saw many battles for ownership and saw many heros die for the Swarajya. The film aptly have the same subject woven around realistic characters from Satara.

Director Satish Rajwade has always told us unconventional love stories and this time too he comes up with a mature and sensible story of first love 'Ti Saddhya Kay Karte'. The film spans over the 3 phases of human life i.e Childhood, Teenage and Adulthood. The story of first love is told with a twist, which is available for every human to take. Ti Saddhya Kay Karte will make you nostalgic and will make you fall in love again with your life.

"ज्या बारीक नसतात त्या जाडच असतात". A stereotype statement created to attract attention (media gimmick). Director Sachin Kundalkar must has thought about himself only while making this film, since he has forgotten to mention any other sizes between Thin and Fat. Even he forgot to show how to lose weight in a right way. You cannot be philosophical without giving the working solution for the problem.

Chandrakant Kulkarni’s film adaptation of a play is a successful one. The jump from theatre to film is smooth. The film doesn’t come across as theatrical. The fine performances by the whole cast is what keeps you engaged as the screenplay becomes a bit susceptible in the second half.

If you want to watch a youth romance movie with outstanding performances then go and watch Photocopy. The movie depicts the college life, friendship, Sibling rivalry (in this case twin sisters) and youth romance and off course it is being made lively by the performances of young cast members. But do not expect much from the screenplay, better to watch this with logic in your pocket.

Ruturaj Dhalgade written and directed film Lost & Found deals with loneliness. Loneliness is becoming a major issue in the current generation all over world and there are many mental disorders associated with it if not dealt with it at the early stages. The film touches this very sensitive issue through its 4 central characters and majorly concentrates on the Manas – Naina love angle too.
